The boathouse will be clad with Western red cedar.
This Boathouse is currently being built by us at the start of summer 2015. It is in a beautiful location just across from Salcombe.
Access was very tricky, but with the aid of a spider crane we managed to get all the timber on site.
The oak timber frame looks great and fits the environment beautifully.

Oak Stairs
A client had some felled Oak trees on their land and asked me to build 2 sets of stairs from the trees.

Camping Truck
This is an old army Bedford truck that I converted into a camper. With the help from the client we insulated and clad the truck in Red Cedar, then i made Bi-fold doors and a toilet/ shower room and a rock n roll bed.
SunRoom.
This Sun room has been built using triple glazed units so that it doesn't get too hot in mid summer. The Oak was complimented with some beautiful Steel brackets that I commissioned from a local blacksmith. The Oak French windows and single window on the front were built by Bond Joinery. I try to work with local independents as much as possible as i can assure a quality product.
Extension.
We built this frame to extend the kitchen to accommodate a dining space, a utility room and to make the bathroom bigger.
This is an Oak timber frame .
At 5m x 3m it has dramatically increased the size and the feel of the whole of the ground floor.

The vaulted ceiling , glazed doors and big glazed unit have added an masses of light and space the the area . The warmth of the oak and the feel of being connected to the field out side, makes this an area that the whole family spends most of it's time
oak frame sunroom
This is a sun-room that we built for a client onto the rear of their house,
before there was just an outside terrace but now there is a beautifully light and spacious room.
The Oak French windows and doors are all double glazed along with the roof glazing and direct glazing on the walls. This, with the insulation in the roof, has helped to make the whole house warmer.

All the Oak used on this frame was grown and cut within 40 miles of the house and the Oak doors/ French windows were also built by a local Joiner.
Not only can we build your Timber frame but we can also glaze , supply and fit the doors. Also we can handle the whole project as we work hand in hand with a team of builders and masons and joiners so you don't have to worry about the complications of organising different contractors.

CONSERVATORY
Beautiful faceted oak consevatory
These customers were fed up with the plastic conservatory that they had. It was too hot in the sun,too cold at night and looked awful.
So we pulled down the plastic frame and designed an oak frame to fit on the old footprint, complimenting the house and adding a new room that is fully insulated to create a room that can be used all year.
Because the new room is so well insulated, we have been able to remove the connecting wall completely resulting in an amazing space that they are truly happy with.
